NCH’s statement was critiqued due to being false about their statement by covering it up and not addressing anything properly regarding to what Eddie said

[@sorabaet]

I think N.SSIGN’s Eddie’s situation is really interesting and should be discussed/highlighted more within the Kpop community because it really reveals how much the industry is such a system and many idols could be in similar circumstances.

[@gwenmloveskpopandmore]

I'm not a BTS fan really, but what happened with Jin was super disturbing and makes me sad. A lot of really well-meaning fans turned out for that free hug event and were respectful. All it took was a handful of intrusive and disrespectful "fans" to taint it and that makes me sad for the people that showed up willing to follow the rules and give Jin the welcome home that he deserved.

[@Sanatizer_143]

[@ember8781]

Okay as someone who learned to walk runways from modeling coaches, Jennie's walk is good. The type of walk completely depends on the event and if you look at the other models, she's walking in the exact same way so it's likely what was asked of her. Not every runway requires a fast, powerful walk

[@silververnallbells191]

It doesn't have to be fast, but she looks like she's trying desperately not to fall over. For someone w/a lot of dance training she sure is missing grace.

[@LunaticLynne]

Lmao you're hilarious. She has lots of grace. And if you see actual supermodels in catwalks, they dont all have the stereotypical catwalk people associate with runways. Go watch any number of fashion shows and you'll see the difference​@@silververnallbells191

[@JustMe-12345]

I’m in no way an expert in either runway or dance. But I’ve seen plenty of”weird” or rather different/unconventional walks. They were meant that way and perfectly executed by the models. This walk isn’t weird, it’s just not the fast-strong walk sometimes seen. And since Jennie is also a very good dancer and can probably walk in most shoes/heels just fine I’ll go with “designers choice” over “Jennie can’t walk”. She looked elegant

[@jayceyallen7745]

@@silververnallbells191she's literally walking the same as all the other models. It's fine to not like it but you can't really say she specifically is bad if she's doing exactly what's asked of her

I don’t stan BlackPink or Jennie, but the amount of hate Jennie receives is insane. Honestly, it's almost like her biggest fans are the haters, who seem to be obsessed with giving her and her career all their attention. The irony is clear: while they spew negativity, they can't stop watching her rise. Keep watching her walk the runway and dominate your feeds-she's thriving despite it all. And for those who genuinely dislike her walk, this was her first time. She’s not going to be a pro with just one go.

[@jaureguihansen5798]

I don’t understand non black people defending CA. If black people claim it is offensive to them, you should respect their feelings and not do it. It’s as simple as that. Just like anything else you do in life, why would you continue doing it if so many people are genuinely hurt by it? It’s not our place (as non black people) to decide if it’s offensive or not anyways

[@calicokaels]

Sadly, some people can't take blame and/or don't want to stop "doing the thing" (in this case CA). When they do something wrong, it's easier for them to make the offended/hurt party the bad guy rather than admitting they effed up. As you said, it really is just as simple as NOT doing the offensive/hurtful thing.

[@silververnallbells191]

I'm black & the whole "cultural appropriation" thing is extra dumb. As long as no one is mocking THEN it is NOT cultural appropriation. People really need to grow up thinking they can police other people's hair.

[@penelopepitstock]

I suspect it’s actually just haters, not fans and not black people. There’s a lot of energy put into getting negative things trending in kpop. The toxicity on social media in this space is so extreme that I suspect it’s not even organic at times, but that’s another tangent. I sometimes even wonder if it’s done deliberately to get the group trending one way or another.

[@calicokaels]

@penelopepitstock This... definitely is not far fetched and makes sense. People are weird like that, tbh. 😅

[@ninadee7407]

Jennie was probably scared af, and one thing about model walk is, like singing, you have to do it with confidence. But whatever hesitation you see, it's hardly worth tearing her down for it. Empathy goes a long way. As for the Hybe via BeLift stunt, you left out the "best" part: the doctored photos trying to make it look like other girl groups before NJ used soft color palettes in their hanbok shoots.

Jennie’s walk isn’t bad for sure, I learned how to walk from modeling coaches a few years ago and while it’s not amazing outstanding insanely different… but there’s nothing actually wrong with it. The other models look similar to her so it’s probably the type of walk the show asked for. I’m just surprised she’s walking at all since she’s so short lmao

The hate Jennie gets is so unessesary, just stfu and be happy that she gets all these opportunities and brings us content that YG doesn't give us. She's not a professional, and neither are you, so don't try to correct her when you're literally clueless. Jennie works hard even if you don't see it, so just let it go and be happy for her because she's not doing anything hurtful or disrespectful to anyone.

[@Linyela]

Chanyeol's and Junmyeon's festival performance was canceled because the organizer isn't legit. This often happens with European "kpop festivals". They always claim a big kpop idol or group is gonna come and end up canceling that artist for "organizational reasons", which usually means they don't have the money, or claim an artist would come who they didn't even book at all. The statement of the organization also said it was due to their circumstances, not SM's. I agree it looks sus that it happened at the same time, but SM wasn't the reason, they miss out on money by canceling themselves so it makes 0 sense.

[@jasmineuelese730]

these company representatives have completely embarrassed themselves. they're convincing fans that they should stand with a label rather than with the artists, the people who are truly affected when a company tanks. they're also taking focus off of a real issue: the mistreatment and the anxiety and stress disorders that have been plaguing idols and putting them on hiatus for hears now and these ridiculous ages that are being debuted with the excuse that it's always been that way. shame on hybe 🤢, ador 🤢, be:lift 🤢 etc. and every other label too; jyp, sm, yg etc. aren't safe either.

[@dharling97]

I don't think there's anything wrong with the overall speed of Jennie, but the way she walked was not pretty. It did nothing for the dress and I understand why people did a double take. Combine that with Blinks being bored and butting into things that has nothing to do with them, it's not surprised it blew over like that. It might have been the one she modelled for who told her to walk like that, but it's just not a pretty or flattering walk. I really don't understand what goes through some designer and brands mind when it comes to so called "fashion" Regarding the entire copying video, I do find it funny how people are basically bashing BeliftLab meanwhile they praised Mhj for doing the exact same. Belift Lab is basically pointing out the double standards and hypocritical acts of Mhj, who has done A LOT of bad things compared to Belift Labs video. This entire copying thing is beyond stupid as Belift Lab says, the entire kpop industry is basically one big copying machine if Mhj was correct. I know that there's some theories behind SM and Kakao helping Mhj sabotaging Hybe, and there's been found some suspicious evidence forwards this, and as a BTS fan it makes sense, considering the iron grib SM and Kakao has on the Korean entertainment industry and some of their connections that they have showcased over the years. I feel bad for the EXO members, because while I'm rooting for them, I do think that even if they were to win and expose SM, there's a way bigger change that they are either going to lose or get banned from koreas mainstream media. I'm so happy to see Jin coming back! Namjoon was absolutely genius and hilarious with the sax. Made me so emotional seeing them all together hugging, with Yoongi quite possibly being in the car waiting. The fact that majority of Bighit's official annoncements are gonna be discharge news is epic. Also the girly with the disgusting behavior, I hope police get your ass dragging you right to court!

[@silververnallbells191]

Don't forget MhJ consulted a fortune teller on how to take down BTS so she could make moves for New Jeans. She's far from an angel.

[@jensetter-dib]

Jennie did an amazing job with her walk. Blinks are not exaggerating anything, they are protecting her from all the hate she is receiving from stupid kids. It is actually hilarious to see someone like you saying that Blinks are bored because the ones who are on media outlets on daily basis are BP with no music since 2022. Fans of the other groups are just trying to portraying them as bad people, talentless and so on, but they are still on the top.

[@jayceyallen7745]

Her walk was the same as the other models. She has a friendship with the designer and he had her and the other models walk exactly how he wanted the pieces displayed. It's stupid how quick ppl are to criticize about something they clearly know nothing about.

[@yoyoblackpink4964]

So many things go on every week 😮‍💨

[@HailToTheMeep]

BeLift made a clear point by point argument about what “plagiarism” is NOT. They aren’t saying NewJeans are copying. They are applying MHJ’s false logic and showed that those are NOT “plagiarism”. The YG comment seems consistent with Kpop fans’ inability to understand the logical fallacy BeLift was trying to point out. But it actually supports BeLift’s point.

I dont know about you all but I for one would think twice before trusting the words of corporations. I'm not a fan of Min Hee Jin at all but I would be cold in my grave before I trust HYBE. SM too.

There is no such thing a cultural appropriation. Telling people what they can and can’t say, can and can’t do , can and can’t wear based on the color of their skin is racist. Point blank period.

What r u even saying????

[@Fran-vt5xm]

Cultural appropriation is a real thing, just not usually often used correctly. It mostly applies to when someone from another culture claims something as their own or goes through the effort of concealing what it is or renaming it. It also applies to when people use ones culture for mockery. For example someone wearing a Hanfu and renaming it to traditional European wear. This is more a case of participating in a closed culture culture which is even debated in communities. IMO if someone tells you I don't like you doing this and I'll get mad if you do you don't then get to turn around and get mad at them for doing whatever you want despite their warnings. Ps. No culture doesn't mean the color of one's skin that's called race and even then some races have different skin tones.

@@Fran-vt5xm So, thoughts on KHH incorporating black culture then. Just out of curiosity. Because a lot of folks seem hypocritical and say that that’s okay but not when idols do something similar. Not saying this is your viewpoint, just wanted feedback from someone with a shared experience to those supposedly being appropriated.

[@Fran-vt5xm]

@@spideyman23 no real thoughts on it, I'd rather they wouldn't at all but if they learn from the situation I'm not bothered
